Leonard had heard the news too and gave Aurora a call.“Hey, Aurora?”She answered with a smile, “What’s up, Leonard?”“I didn’t want to bother you these past few days. I was worried all that stuff online might’ve affected you. How are you feeling? Everything okay?”His concern came through clearly from the other end of the line.Aurora shook her head. “Of course I’m fine. That’s all in the past now.”“Don’t worry about me. I’m not someone who’s that easy to knock down.”Leonard reached over and ruffled Nora’s hair, his smile warm. “That’s good. I’ve been worried about you, but hearing you say that puts me at ease.”“Treat whatever you see online as a joke,” Aurora reminded. “Don’t believe it too easily.”“Don’t worry, I know what to believe.”Leonard glanced at Nora, who was watching him with hopeful eyes.“Uh… how about dinner tonight?” he asked. “Nora misses you. She’s been sitting at home staring at the toy you gave her.”Leonard was a little surprised himself. Nora usually wasn’t

She remembered Lucas once mentioning that his company mainly dealt with advertising.Now, watching Aurora press for answers, Lucas found himself at a loss for words.He could only press his lips into a thin line, his expression turning distant."I’m just here for business. If you don’t want to believe that, there’s nothing I can do."His words left Aurora momentarily stunned.He wasn’t like this before. Since when did he become so cold?What she didn’t know was that Lucas simply didn’t know what to say.Running into Aurora at his own company, while still trying to keep up the lie, left him feeling uneasy.The guilt crept in fast, especially under her sharp, questioning gaze, he grew even more unsure of himself.The more he said, the more he risked exposing something and he couldn’t afford that.Aurora frowned, suppressing her growing frustration. "But I remember you saying your company doesn’t work much with Vanguard. So, showing up here today…"She didn’t finish the sentence. She simp

Meanwhile, Aurora had already begun laying the groundwork for a new project.The domestic market was nearing saturation, especially now that she had secured Vanguard, the biggest piece of the puzzle. Everything else had lost its edge, no longer offering much of a challenge.So, this time, she planned to branch out and explore new business avenues.Her assistant approached. “Miss Walton, should we call everyone in for a meeting?”“Yes. Conference room at ten.”Now that she had a new direction, there was no point in holding back. She had to push forward and find ways to expand this vision.When the group was called into the conference room, most of them looked confused.They exchanged puzzled glances, unsure what Aurora was up to this time.Grace sat with a tense expression. Aurora hadn’t discussed this meeting with her in advance, so she had no idea what was going on.She was still stewing over the fact that Aurora had ignored her summons to the office the other day. The more she tho

Aurora looked directly at him, her expression serious. “If we can secure the land, I’m seventy percent confident it will succeed.”The moment those words left her mouth, the room fell into silence.Even Grace averted her gaze, already sensing that this project wasn’t going to gain traction.She knew all too well what kind of people sat around that table—conservative, cautious, unwilling to take risks.Aurora noticed the sudden hush, but didn’t quite know how to bridge the gap. So, she pressed on, forcing herself to reiterate the core of her proposal.Finally, she wrapped it up with a firm conclusion. “Partnering with Vanguard has already opened up the domestic market. If we truly want to grow, we have to look abroad.“That’s all from me. If there are no further questions, I suggest we adjourn. Take some time to think it over.”But no one moved. They just exchanged uncertain glances.In the end, it was Grace who broke the silence. “Alright. Since you’ve finished, let’s leave it at that

Aurora pressed her lips into a faint smile. “It’s not about proving anyone wrong. I just want to lead the company toward the international stage and open more paths for growth.”Ian finally understood exactly where Aurora stood.He’d always known she was someone with big ambitions. She was never meant to stay confined in a small world—her vision had always been much greater.Aurora smiled again. “Go on, get back to work. As for the land, I’ll review the specifics myself. We don’t need to worry too much about their side.”“I understand,” he replied. “If you need anything, Miss Walton, just say the word.”“Will do.”Walking out of Aurora’s office, Ian felt completely at peace.There was no point wasting time being angry at those people. From now on, his path was side by side with hers.Others watched as he walked past, head held high and couldn’t understand what he had to be so proud about.Working under someone everyone had just mocked—what was there to be so cheerful about?Even Tessa
